44 ;;;; annotation graph walk
46 ;;; Do a backward walk in the flow graph simulating the run-time stack of
47 ;;; unknown-values continuations and annotating the blocks with the result.
49 ;;; Block is the block that is currently being walked and Stack is the stack
50 ;;; of unknown-values continuations in effect immediately after block. We
51 ;;; simulate the stack by popping off the unknown-values generated by this
52 ;;; block (if any) and pushing the continuations for values received by this
53 ;;; block. (The role of push and pop are interchanged because we are doing a
56 ;;; If we run into a values generator whose continuation isn't on stack top,
57 ;;; then the receiver hasn't yet been reached on any walk to this use. In this
58 ;;; case, we ignore the push for now, counting on Annotate-Dead-Values to clean
59 ;;; it up if we discover that it isn't reachable at all.
61 ;;; If our final stack isn't empty, then we walk all the predecessor blocks
62 ;;; that don't have all the continuations that we have on our Start-Stack on
63 ;;; their End-Stack. This is our termination condition for the graph walk. We
64 ;;; put the test around the recursive call so that the initial call to this
65 ;;; function will do something even though there isn't initially anything on
68 ;;; We can use the tailp test, since the only time we want to bottom out
69 ;;; with a non-empty stack is when we intersect with another path from the same
70 ;;; top-level call to this function that has more values receivers on that
71 ;;; path. When we bottom out in this way, we are counting on
72 ;;; DISCARD-UNUSED-VALUES doing its thing.
74 ;;; When we do recurse, we check that predecessor's END-STACK is a
75 ;;; subsequence of our START-STACK. There may be extra stuff on the top
76 ;;; of our stack because the last path to the predecessor may have discarded
77 ;;; some values that we use. There may be extra stuff on the bottom of our
78 ;;; stack because this walk may be from a values receiver whose lifetime
79 ;;; encloses that of the previous walk.
81 ;;; If a predecessor block is the component head, then it must be the case
82 ;;; that this is a NLX entry stub. If so, we just stop our walk, since the
83 ;;; stack at the exit point doesn't have anything to do with our stack.
